I had a great time and came away with a renewed appreciation for how original and great the event is. My story on the UCI rules should be up later today or tomorrow; I'll send a link. Thanks also for the encouragement at the TT yesterday. That was a hard course for sure and I'm going to come back next year to try to better my time. Fantastic as always to see you.” - Joe Lindsey at Bicycling “I could tell that this was the kind of mountain weekend that seeped deep into both Ben & Amelia's psyche (Grant’s kids), that they now equate the mountains—and Dad—as a good time with tons of fun stuff to do. I will always be grateful to you for providing this wonderful memory for us. My how the Games have grown since we were last there in 2007 (I think it was 07). What impressed me the most was how many 1000s of people were participating this weekend and how they were everywhere. The TMG has done a terrific job of making people feel special about competing at every level.
